Aquatic Delight: September 2009
http://darksomehandsome.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 5, 2009. I think it's official, I'm done with forums. A while back I had the misfortune to sign up in a fish forum only to find myself. Reprimanded for my techniques even after my own research reaffirmed me that I had done nothing wrong. I read so much and try to get my fill on everything I can find and then deduce on what I should do next, in a rare case will I come across something that stumps me and it's at this point that I start posting. Is it the knowledge that I just gained...

Aquatic Delight: August 2009
http://darksomehandsome.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 27, 2009. Still working on it. Nothing frustrates me more than having my 10 gallon tank in a suspended state. And at the same time feeling a little helpless. It seems like I'm always working on improving something but then I. Don't like it and put it off altogether. About a week ago I increased the CO2 for this tank and the plants started growing exponentially, I got more growth in a week than the last four weeks combined. To the left has grown into a nice little bush. Which I believe is...

Aquatic Delight: July 2009
http://darksomehandsome.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 21, 2009. My tanks are doing great I couldn't be happier. From the very start I've had little problems growing plants, but now I seem to be getting better. My ten gallon, I thought, would be unable to provide the necessary environment for most plants, it has two 14 watt AquaGlo. CO2 With these in mind I couldn't help but feel a bit pessimistic. About a month ago I added some Rotala. It didn't grow or do anything at all so I took it out. I also added some Hygrophila. Tank Not too sure what t...

Aquatic Delight: Oh No!
http://darksomehandsome.blogspot.com/2009/11/oh-no.html
Saturday, November 21, 2009. I wish I had a pictorial update, but that will have to wait until I get new batteries for my camera. The potassium deficiency has finally been taken care of, my plants' leaves no longer die! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Aquatic Delight: June 2009
http://darksomehandsome.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 19, 2009. I cleaned up my hexagon tank just a bit. The bulb was changed from an incandescent to a compact fluorescent spiral. It's warm white 2700K, the plants love it, I see them pearling after a few hours into the photoperiod. I got rid of the floating anacharis and put it in my fancy guppy breeding tank. I also trimmed the hygrophila difformis since it's starting to put out leaves in the submersed form, I originally got it with emersed foliage. The guppies get to have more space to swim in.

Aquatic Delight: October 2009
http://darksomehandsome.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 27, 2009. An Update: At Last. Since I enjoy DIY projects I decided to. Convert the non-working strip light from a fluorescent pin-base to a CFL screw-in. I'm not an electrician but it was easier than I thought. Now I have two 20 watt spiral CFLs plus a 14 watt fluorescent, giving me a total of 5.4WPG! I also was dealing with a potassium deficiency, I got some KCl from the supermarket which I'm certain will patch up this problem. To my baby turtle. Anyway, I leave you with the results.
